Hi, are you referring to the casset head? If you remove the head you have to realign it, do you have that kind of equipment? If not take it in to someone that does. I used to be in electronics but never messed with the heads. I would take the whole unit in to someone.

Hey, I'm talking about the shared cd player / cassette/ radio unit.I'm going to be removing then replacing so i'm not too worried about lining it all back up afterwards. Just need the steps on how to remove the dash around it so I can get to it. thanks

I am having no luck with "Step 1: Remove the air vents at the top of the console. Use a screwdriver around them carefully, it comes straight out, it is held in by pressure clips."I have poked, prodded and pulled everything. Exactly how do you release the top clip under the trim? A YouTube video showing how to do this would be a HUGE help.Thanks in advance.
